The Royal Canadian Mint has unveiled a new silver coin featuring a grizzly bear on the front. This spectacular coin has a face value of $100.00 and for now is available for purchase at face value. For more information on how to order one of these special coins please see below.
Did you know Knight Inlet Lodge has a YouTube page? It has a number of great video clips both from guests and from the remote cameras we have in place in Glendale plus our latest promotional video.
Lenore has weaned her cubs at 18 months which is a year earlier than normal. While people may be upset with Lenore this is not unheard of and does not mean she is a bad mother. As John Kitchin explains below we all need to be careful about putting human values on what is simply part of nature at work.

Knight Inlet Lodge is pleased to announce that it has once again received a Travelers Choice Award from TripAdvisor. This prestigious award is based on the reviews from our guests during the 2012 season so a big thank you not only goes out to the guests that took the time to review our lodge but to the many dedicated staff that made it possible.

Dean & Kathy Wyatt are very happy to announce the purchase of a replacement floating lodge that will be ready to go for the start of our 2013 season on May 24, 2013.
The new lodge will have 16 guests rooms, all with private washroom and showers, plus the ability to expand slightly in the future. Knight Inlet Lodge #2 is 5 years old and in excellent shape. We will be performing minor renovations to the lodge at our home base in Campbell River on Vancouver Island prior to towing the lodge to Glendale Cove in April for final anchoring and hookup.
Many thanks to Ann for sharing this story with us. As you might imagine the last month and a bit since the fire have been at times difficult for everyone at Knight Inlet Lodge. It is the incredible support of guests such as Ann that have gone a long way towards helping us keep our spirits up.

The grizzly bear viewing is off to a great start at the lodge. Not only has Lenore appeared with 2 healthy babies but we have a sow (Ava) with triplets plus Bell and her 2 cubs all in the area.
We have also had a very large male in our area that has caused our sow and cub combos some worries but so far everyone is finding room to coexist. for a great video on Bella and her cubs swimming right by Knight Inlet Lodge as they avoid a male go to our Facebook page www.facebook.com/knightinlet
Published in October 2011 - co-authored by Dave Campbell and Margaret Healion - Voice of the Great Spirit is a beautifully crafted hardback title celebrating the grizzly bears of Knight Inlet - and the landscape and wildlife they co-habit - in this idyllic part of British Columbia, at the foot of the Great Bear Rainforest.
